A geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with chamfered, faceted joins. Letterforms are narrow and compact, with consistent stroke weight and a clean, low-contrast construction. Counters tend to be squarish or octagonal, and terminals are flat or diagonally cut, giving rounded shapes like O, C, and G a planar, polygonal silhouette. The rhythm is tight and regular, with crisp internal angles and a slightly modular feel across both uppercase and lowercase; numerals follow the same clipped, technical geometry.
Well suited to display settings where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, titles, and branding with a technical or futuristic slant. It also works for short UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding-style signage where crisp, engineered forms reinforce an industrial aesthetic.
The overall tone is technical and engineered, evoking digital readouts, equipment labeling, and sci‑fi interface typography. Its sharp facets and disciplined structure feel modern, precise, and slightly austere rather than friendly or expressive.
The font appears designed to translate a modern sans structure into a faceted, planar system, emphasizing clipped corners and polygonal counters for a controlled, technical look. The consistent geometry suggests an intention to feel machine-made and interface-ready while remaining straightforward and legible in concise text.
The design maintains a consistent system of corner cuts across the set, which helps unify diverse forms and keeps curves visually “flattened” into straight segments. In text, the compact proportions and angular detailing create a distinctive texture that reads cleanly at display sizes and stays orderly in short lines.
